Recorded on 3-13-2026. I begin with the S&P 500, which moved lower during the week and is starting to show signs of technical weakness as volatility rises and the U.S. dollar strengthens. With bond yields climbing and investors becoming more cautious, I discuss why the short-term outlook for equities may remain pressured and where the next potential support zones could emerge if selling continues.
From there I move through the major commodity markets and highlight the technical setups forming across the sector. Gold has started to soften after a strong run while silver and mining stocks are showing more pronounced downside momentum. Copper remains under pressure as it drifts toward longer-term moving averages, uranium equities are approaching levels that could create new buying opportunities, and energy markets remain highly sensitive to geopolitical developments. I also touch on natural gas momentum, coalโs reaction to broader energy trends, weakness developing in platinum and palladium, a tightening consolidation pattern forming in nickel, and the short-term technical picture for Bitcoin as it trades near important resistance levels.
